Lemon Poppyseed Buttermilk Scones

I’ve been craving scones for over a week, but I had to wait until I hit the grocery store to buy butter. We’ve talked about how I can’t actually keep it in the house due to my status as a recovering Cookie Dough Addict. And then I meant to make them yesterday, but I was busy being a slug/couch jockey and taking a Mental Health Day (yet still making chicken noodle soup, brownies, and batch cooking some black beans). It was fabulous, thanks for asking.

But tonight I realized I forgot to buy bananas to make muffins for hubby’s breakfast this week, and seeing that I’m a kind wife who is not going to doom him to another week of hard boiled eggs for breakfast, I decided to go ahead and make scones. He just has to share. As I am not a huge baker, I scoped out my nice basic baking resource the Good Housekeeping Baking cookbook. I used their base recipe for a buttermilk scone and added in my own lemon and poppyseeds.
